When navigating directly from a map, the Ranger from Silva is the reliable and trusted choice.
This compass features a magnifying lens to help you see finer details and a detachable safety-release lanyard in case things get caught. The longer base plate measures in mm and scales of 1:50,000 and 1:25,000, there’s a declination scale inside the capsule, and this compass features DryFlex grip which makes it easy to handle.
The graphics on the Ranger have also been improved which makes it more distinctive and easier to read. If you need a compass that’s dependable and easy to use with a map, the Ranger from Silva is a no-brainer option.
Gday just wondering if these have a scale on the lanyard. In the pictures on this site it doesn't but on others it does cheers in advance for the reply
G'day Bob,
No it doesn't - they used to have the scale on the lanyard about 2 years ago, but the chord is now as pictured on our website.
Is this right for the northern hemisphere?
G'day Richard,
No, its not - all of our Silva compass range is southern hemisphere specific. Silvas internationally compatible range has "Global" in the compass model name.
The only two compasses we sell that are globally balanced are the Suunto MC-2 G & the Suunto M-3 G.
